This whole discussion of eye dominance goes back to the comment that I made earlier that the most critical part of putting is making sure you have a putter that fits your eye. My experience has been that left eye dominant right handed players (cross dominant) tend to put better with a closed stance and the ball played forward, under the left eye. Non cross dominant (right eye, right handed) players tend to putt better with a square to slightly open stance with the ball back a bit, under the right eye. One of the keys is that you CANNOT turn your head down the target line and figure out if you are lined up properly once you are addressing the ball. Our heads don't tend to swivel well along the target line. This is especially true of older people with less suppleness. The only reason to look at the hole after you have addressed a putt is to make sure that you have the right feel for distance and speed, NOT line.
